Sigma 300-600mm f/4 Hands-On in the Wild – A Kingfisher Adventure with Olle Nilsson

Wildlife photographer Olle Nilsson took the brand new Sigma 300-600mm f/4 DG DN OS Sports Lens out for a two-day field test, aiming to capture lightning-fast kingfishers in action. Key highlights from the video:

  • Sharpness is superb across the 300-600mm range, paired with a Sony A1 for 50MP cropping flexibility
  • Lens is large (~4kg)
